Just got these pics from Ron. I'll be picking it up in the morning. Since he did so much custom work, it's just tack welded together. I'll test fit it and, if everything is good, drop it back off at RLR next week for them to finish welding up. Cool thing is, I'll have it in my car for the Treffen this weekend, even if it's just tacked together.

Got it in the car. It's a bitch to get in, fits like a glove, but once it's in it looks great. I'll take it back to Ron for them to weld up, then probably just have it powder coated, then finally bolt it into the car for good.

I noticed the new roll cage , and I was wondering why it was not bolted down, but with all the excitement this past weekend I forgot to ask. Now I know :beer: Looks freaking awesome! It was good seeing you at the Treffen!
